Finding Text

Audit Finding 2025-002 – Cash Management Criteria: 24 CFR section 905 requires a PHA to have an eligible operating fund expenditure that is due and payable within 3 days of disbursing funds from the capital fund. Condition: The Authority did not always make disbursements within three business days of advances from the U.S. Treasury. Cause: The Authority was not fully aware of the compliance requirements of the Capital Fund Program. Effect: The Authority did not maximize the efficiency of fund transfers from the U.S. Treasury. Recommendation: The Authority should ensure that drawdowns from the U.S. Treasury are done in a manner that does not violate 31 CFR Part 205. Drawdowns should either be made on a reimbursement basis or when management can ensure subsequent disbursement within three business days. Questioned Costs: None View of Responsible Officials: Management agrees with the finding.

Corrective Action Plan

Corrective Action Planned: The Authority will draw down CFP funds on a reimbursement basis or can ensure subsequent disbursement within three business days to ensure compliance with 31 CFR Part 205.
